For the current leadership of the Lopez National Comprehensive High School General Alumni Association (LNCHSGAA) in Lopez, Quezon, education isn’t only confined to the campus, much less concentrated among the everydayness of a particular academic society.

There is such a thing as an educational exchange between one or more institutions to learn from each other, in an off-campus, even beyond graduation from the four walls of the academe.

LNCHS knows it too well that it easily collaborates with the UST Faculty of Arts and Letters (Artlets ’75), specifically with the mounting of the “Lopesay Got Talent” search, where the promotion of camaraderie, shared learning, and solidarity among the members of the alumni community comes primarily.

Artlets’ 75 grads are supporting the participation of current enrollees and alumni of the LNCHS in the show.

Boy Villasanta, a multimedia practitioner and an alumnus of both the LNCHS and UST Artlets, said that the vision of both academic institutions is to share objectives of quality education and service to the nation.

“We at Artlets ’75 share the bond of education these two bastions of learning signify and connect,” exclaimed Boy.

“Lopesay Got Talent,” to be held tomorrow, Saturday, August 24, 2024, at the Dolor Amphitheater inside LNCHS premises, showcases the special skills and talents of students and alumni to reconnect, foster, strengthen, and build dynamic and friendly relationships among them.  

Twenty participating contestants, individually or in groups, are expected to make their performances not only fun but also meaningful.

Among the participants in the Student Category in their respective numbers are Bryan Ardiente and Aldrich Lucila; Yrrah Argosino, Allyza Balonzo, Xyriel Mhay Papa and Queen Alma Miaka Sevial; Estrosas; Jacob Benedict Guamos; Winstle Izzy Leora; Monica Madera; John Maginsay; Glenn Mendoza; Joshua Onolfo and John Ray Villapando.

In the Alumni Category, the participants are Julianito Villasanta (Batch 1971); Roy Roeden Escleto (2007); Maien Joy Mendoza (2018); Paul Noscal (2019); Ashley Katherine Orolfo (2020) and group performances from Batches 1973, 1976 and 1993.

Although most of Artlets ’75 cannot physically attend the event, Boy is representing them by assisting and wishing the success of the talent search, the general alumni celebration, and the 78th founding anniversary of LNCHS.

UST Artlets ’75 Golden Jubilee celebration with Boy as one of the prime movers is scheduled next year with various activities from reunification to throwback sessions. Meanwhile, Lorna Li Magcalayo is the President the 2024 LNCHSGAA.
